When I blew up drive in spring from floating crab trap EEEERRR top gear spun a new 290 duo prop as they deem them "obsolete" a new one was close to 17 grand so i asked if i could put that money towards new power and they said yes hence why the ONLY reason im getting rid of the old system and all the parts someone will benefit greatly. forgot to mention lots of spare parts for sale....

I used to have a 383 stroker. They are great engines. Good luck selling it Wolf.

Ten mile I asked nicely NOT for this to be a debate... If you remember at the time I said the cost to put an EFI on this engine was way to expensive hence it has a 4 bbl. cost over long term wasnt worth it .
thanks Wolf

[wolf]

Hey Roy, Do you still have the drives available ? Have a buddy in the interior looking to replace his.

Let me now and I can pass on your contact info, he is not a forum member.

Thanks,
Harry

YES still have both drives one is a 178:1 the other is a 195:1 ratio my boat came with the 195 ratio one,
but only difference in the gearing was lost 300 rpm on the 178 but gained more speed and better fuel both drives had same props, both have been serviced and ready to bolt on ...also will sell the hydrolic trim motor,manifolds heat exchanger,SS C4 props with prop speed on them. water pumps
PM me and ill call you when i get home

Glad to hear the sale worked out for you Roy !!! That boat had some balls for sure I sure hope you have it ready for early Hali fishing. I sure would like to book another one of your early season socials. Still laughing about the lucky beer song.
